Thanks for the confirmation. I've raised the question on the bug-make list [1], together with a pointer to your suggestion. > In the meantime, though, we're stuck with workarounds such as the > one I installed. When, changes to po/Makefile.in.in ought to be added to gettext (upstream), and I'm wondering whether we need to care about "make -q", or whether "make -q" is a hopeless case anyway.
